Description:
Due to the pandemic many companies are trying to organize effective communications between remote working employees, but some of them cannot use cloud solutions because of sensitive nature of their data.
Some organizations don't pay attention to open sourced version of Mattermost because they think that some features like push notifications depend on services which are provided by Mattermost Inc. or Google and it could be risky. And they are partly right, but only partly.
Everyone can build their own version of mobile application that will use custom FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging) settings for notifications delivery and those notifications won't contain any sensitive information (only sender, without message text). To achieve that you have to deploy mattermost-push-proxy.
That is why I created project that provides a quick way to build Mattermost Mobile for Android devices.
